what?

You have admitted to never paying for music. Pretty sure that mentality is what "more or less killed music" even though I think it is very much alive.

They're come out with 4 albums and they're all good

Radiohead came out with 5 good albums and they've been around 15 years longer

Respectfully disagree.

Suburbs >>>> Reflektor IMHO though I guess I see the appeal of Reflektor, it's a decent concept.

Taken a look around at the music industry lately?

The internet killed it

If people think the general output of music is as good now as it was when you had to drive to an album store and buy an album to hear music, they're absolutly fricking crazy

The marketing elements, the creation of this entire industry of music created for 14 year old girls was made because recording industries couldn't make money off of decent music, the absolute vapidness of any form of music major labels touch anymore

Guess what did all of that? That's right, the internet and illegal downloading

I usually agree with you on music like 99% of the time. This just happens to be one of our differences

Agree to disagree

The digital age gives you more access to music more than ever. I don't see how 'it ain't looking good'. I feel like live acts have also stepped up their game because they know they can't make shite off studio recordings.

I love the line in Social Network when he is bragging about killing the music industry.

Id hardly say the record industry is dead.

Yeah? You want to buy a tower records?

I love them. Love Radiohead too. But since music is a competition to some, here we are.
